So Dominic Deegan is taking ads again, and I've decided I'll buy my ad there instead just cause I have seen results from it before.

The ad has to be 75 pixels tall by 500 pixels wide. It cannot be animated.

What I'm wondering here is if anyone has suggestions for what might make a good EE ad giving these requirements, any thoughts welcomed, except those focused on "boobs". A bit more constructive than that.

I was hoping to put my marketing skills to good use this weekend and help you out with some suggestions, but a certain Halloween costume needed to be finished. If I get a chance (and work is slow) I'll play around with some designs.

In due time, there will be something here. Other than this sentence that is.

Considering how your costume turned out, you are very excused. That is the best costume I've seen this year and perhaps in many years. All input is welcomed, no rush since it'll be while until I can even put out 5 comics for the ad week (assuming I reach the $50 goal, I'm over $30 so I'll at least update 4 times that week).

Well I've done connected Mookie of DD for ad space. As of yesterday he had allot of free slots still, so hopefully I get the week I requested. Asked for the first week of December. I'll be just done with school then, with only one exam to take that week and it's my favourite subject so should be no problem for me to update four times that week. I say four because we're still $10 off from the goal of $50. As soon as I hear back from Mookie again I'll let everyone on the site know they're $10 away from a 5 day week. These new pages take me forever so $10 a day is a fair trade : P.

I like the banner My one suggesstion would be to put a little thicker of a black border around "let's play". It's kinda hard to read as is and I think that a bit more black behind it would make it pop out more without distracting from the overall piece.

Possibly, I was really concern with the readableness of the text but only had Orion to go off of and trusted him when he said it was readable. It's already sent to Mookie and would feel a bit weird now asking him to re-take the banner with slightly bolder text, though as a fellow webcomic artist he might understand : P.

NiceAnd I think the words are easy enough to read. Might just come down to a personal perception thing, to some people it's probably harder to read than for others. And basically that's what the conversation just established - I am the High Lord of Stating The Obvious.

Ok, FINALLY got confirmation from Mookie. It will be up during first week of December. Only took me sending two more e-mails to get his attention. And after sending the banner twice he needed it again, so I had time to make the text slightly bolder anyway just in case. Ima pay the $50 now, and hope to get good results in a couple weeks. Woo, 5 updates here I come : P.

I think Mookie has had less ads on DD lately mostly due to the fact he's horrible at responding to people : P.
